Is it possible for a way for males to develop intelligence on par with computers and females to be mindless and only purpose is to reproduce ova for males similar to how male bees only purpose is to provide sperm and die?

$\begingroup$ If all the eggs are in a bank somewhere, where does conception take place? $\endgroup$– Escaped dental patient.Commented Aug 16, 2022 at 7:21

$\begingroup$ The normal way or artificial insemination I just added egg banks for when a man is ready to have kids with a woman $\endgroup$– KirariCommented Aug 16, 2022 at 7:24

2$\begingroup$ If in vitro, then the only person present would be the lab technician who fertilised the egg. Why would a paternity test be needed at that point, I don't understand what you're asking. What would constitute "the normal way" if no women have eggs in their bodies. Please clarify. $\endgroup$– Escaped dental patient.Commented Aug 16, 2022 at 7:37

2$\begingroup$ What's wrong with current state of the art paternity tests? How is this a worldbuilding problem? $\endgroup$– L.Dutch ♦Commented Aug 16, 2022 at 8:09

2$\begingroup$ The edited version of the question is now extremely broad and undefined. "males to develop intelligence on par with quantum computers" doesn't tell us anything about their real-world capability. $\endgroup$– Escaped dental patient.Commented Sep 6, 2022 at 14:40

Eugenics practiced by a horrendously sexist patriarchal society. I.e., what Larry Niven's Kzin did to themselves.
Only let the most intelligent males and least intelligent females reproduce. How effective that is will depend on the chromosomal distribution of genes related to intelligence (among other very complicated factors), but keep it up long enough and eventually you'll get what you want.

Gentic manipulation. Combined with controlled education. Genetically speaking men are more likely to be genius and are more likely to be idiots compared to women. So if the woman's average intelligence Is that of an idiot level then the average man will be the same and some of them far lower.
Because of this I don't see this situation being possible without genetic manipulation. Controlled education also might work denying women the ability to learn to read write or even speak proper language.
